Festival Hair Ideas Coachella

Festival season will be here before we know it! Thanks to Instagram and other social media outlets we’re all up to date on which festivals are occurring, when. Are you planning to hit up Coachella or one of the other popular festivals this year? If so you’re probably starting to plan your outfits, hair and makeup looks for each day. Festivals are an opportunity to rock looks you wouldn’t always wear – which is what makes it so much fun! Because hair is an important part of any look we’ve rounded up some Coachella hair ideas for festival season. Start getting your hair inspo by scrolling through the list!

Typically festivals take place when it’s HOT outside. We don’t have to tell you that. But there will likely be at least one day when you want your hair pulled back from your face and off your neck to avoid all the sweaty hair. This is such a cute way to combine function with style! Tie a cute bandana around your head to give a messy bun a completely look.

Let’s face it…we all love an opportunity to rock beachy waves. They’re timeless and chic no matter the occasion. Not to mention they fully match the free-spirited vibe of festivals! Double win. Give your beachy waves that added festival vibe by wrapping a few pieces in fabrics like this. Isn’t it SO cute?

When you want to embrace the natural texture of your hair and leave most of it down to flow in the breeze outside – this is such a great idea. Use bobby pins to create a unique design AND pull some of your hair back. The key is to use pins in color that’s contrasting from your hair color.

We’re in love with this festival hairstyle! Half up pigtail buns are pretty adorable, but this look takes that style to a different level by adding braids that come down from the braids. Leave it as is or give the look that extra festival touch with flowers pinned under the buns – also helps to add contrast to the bun/braid area.

Bring the flower crown look to live by braiding your hair into a crown shape! Braiding hair and then wrapping it around the head like this is absolutely gorgeous. Leave a few face framing pieces out for that effortless vibe. Give the look a festival twist with a touch of pink hair color added to your hair – this isn’t a must though!

Festivals are such a great tie to embrace hairstyles that are completely out of your norm. Pigtails may not be a go-to hairstyle for you in your daily life but it’s an easy and super cute look for a festival! Not only does it look great but it keeps your hair out of the way when it’s hot out. Add more style to pigtails with this bubble detail added to the tails. So cute!

Ever wanted to color your hair in bright hues but didn’t really have an opportunity? Festival season is your opportunity! Thanks to temporary hair coloring products it’s easier than ever to color your hair in bold, bright colors that you may not want to have outside the festival. If you’re going to do it – might as well go all out like this, too!

If you want that pop of color but don’t necessarily want all of your hair brightly colored like the previous slide, just add it to the ends! Temporarily coloring the ends gives you an ombre look in a really fun color that you’ll have so much fun rocking at a festival.

Need a hairstyle that will keep your hair out of the way? This is a major option! Start by sectioning off your hair into this triangular shape, within that section into three smaller sections. Braid each section tightly, all the way to the ends of the hair. Once the braids are secure pull the rest of your hair back into a ponytail. Use a section of hair to wrap around the base of the ponytail and voila! Festival ready.

We don’t know about you but we love a good braided hairstyle, especially for festival hair looks. It feels so appropriate for the occasion and braids are just plain fun! Allow your hair to do its thing with gorgeous beachy waves, sectioning one side of the hair to style into a loose braid. Complete the look with gold ring embellishments place into the braid.

Hello festival throwback vibes! This look is giving us 60-70’s vibes and we’re totally here for it. Keep your hair simple and let it embrace its natural texture. The look is elevated with feather extensions and a funky hairpiece added to the top. Add as many or as little feather extensions as you want here!

Wearing a hat to a festival is not only trendy, it’s also a great way to keep some of the sun off of your face. Style around your hat with pigtail fishtail braids like this. It’s the perfect balance and adds so much style to the look. Of course, you can definitely rock this hairstyle without a hat and it will look just as chic!

Looking for a festival hairstyle that’s pretty and soft? This is for you! Whatever texture your hair is naturally will work with this style. Simply twist back two sections of a hair, one from each side of the face, as you’re bringing them back twist them inward and secure at the center of the head. After it’s been secured braid the ponytail all the way to the ends. Give this the festival touch with flowers inserted into the hair.

We had to include this iconic Coachella hairstyle. You’ve probably seen countless girls on Instagram posting pictures with their hair styled very similar. The flower crown is a staple among the festival community. The great part about adding a flower crown is you can let your hair air dry or be in its natural texture – and still feel cute!
